I need help. Please provide and explain Mike Martin's three arguments for mandatory whistleblowing: the Prevent-Harm Argument, the Avoid-Harm Argument, and the Professional-Status Argument. Which of these three arguments is most like Utilitarianism, one of our moral theories from earlier in the term? How so? Finally, provide your position on Martin's three arguments for required whistleblowing. Do you feel whistleblowing is required by engineers? If so, which of these three arguments do you feel is the most ethical approach to justified, mandatory whistleblowing? Explain the reasoning behind your answer here.
